Range Calculation

The ZY can, of course, return the phase residual and amplitude data that is obtained as described above, but the mission of the ZY is to return the range to a retroreflector target. This issue is an ongoing effort as this manual is being written (see references [3] [8] [14] [15] [16]) and is the current focus of software development for the ZY system. As such, this portion of the ZY is still incomplete.
